Lyrics:
SĂ, sabes que ya llevo un rato mirándote//Tengo que bailar contigo hoy//Vi que tu mirada ya estaba llamándome//MuĂ©strame el camino que yo voy.
Yes, you know I've been looking at you for a while//I have to dance with you today//I saw that your look was already calling me//show me the way and I'll go.
¡Oh//Tú, tú eres el imán y yo soy el metal//Me voy acercando y voy armando el plan//sólo con pensarlo se acelera el pulso//Ya, ya me está gustando más de lo normal//Todos mis sentidos van pidiendo más//Esto hay que tomarlo sin ningún apuro//Oh!
You, you're the magnet and I'm the metal//I'm getting closer and coming up with a plan//just thinking about it accelerates my pulse//I'm already enjoying it more than normal//All of my senses are asking for more//this has to be done without a hurry.
[Chorus]
Despacito//Quiero respirar tu cuello despacito//Deja que te diga cosas al oĂdo//para que te acuerdes si no estás conmigo//Despacito//Quiero desnudarte a besos despacito//Firmar en las paredes de tu laberinto//y hacer de tu cuerpo todo un manuscrito.
Quiero ver bailar tu pelo, quiero ser tu ritmo//Que le enseñes a mi boca, tus lugares favoritos//Déjame sobrepasar tus zonas de peligro//hasta provocar tus gritos//y que olvides tu apellido.
[Chorus]
SlowlyI want to breathe your neck slowly//Let me whisper things in your ear//that you'll remember when you're not with me//Slowly//I want to undress you with kisses slowly//Sign the walls of your labyrinth//and turn your body into a manuscript//I want to see your hair dance, I want to be your rhythmI want you to show my mouth your favorite places//Let me surpass your danger zone//until it makes you scream//and makes you forget your last name.
Si te pido un beso, ven, dámelo. Yo sé que estás pensándolo//Llevo tiempo intentándolo, mami, esto es dando y dándolo//Sabes que tu corazón conmigo te hace bam-bam//Sabes que esa beba está buscando de mi bam-bam//Ven, prueba de mi boca para ver cómo te sabe//Quiero, quiero, quiero ver cuánto amor a ti te cabe//Yo no tengo prisa, yo me quiero dar el viaje//Empezamos lento, después salvaje.
Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito//Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito//Cuando tú me besas con esa destreza//veo que eres malicia con delicadeza//Pasito a pasito, suave suavecito//Nos vamos pegando, poquito a poquito//Y es que esa belleza es un rompecabezas//pero pa' montarlo aquà tengo la pieza//¡Oye!
If I ask you for a kiss, come on, give it to me. I know you're thinking about it//I've spent a while trying, mami, this is give and giving//You know your heart with me goes bam-bam//You know what this babe wants from me is bam-bam//Come, taste my mouth to see how it tastes to you//I want, want, want to see how much love fits in you//I'm in no rush, I want to take the ride//We'll start slow and then go wild.
Step by step, gentle gently//We'll get closer, little by little//When you kiss me with that skill//I see that you are malice with finesse//Step by step, gentle gently//We'll get closer, little by little//This beauty is a puzzle//but to put it together I have the piece//Oye!
Despacito//Vamo' a hacerlo en una playa en Puerto Rico//hasta que las olas griten “¡Ay, Bendito!”//para que mi sello se quede contigo//¡Bailalo!
Slowly//We're going to do it on a beach in Puerto Rico//until the waves scream 'Oh, Lord!"//so that my seal [likely meaning mark or impression] stays with you.//Dance!
